Throttle control for jumps

[QUOTE="ellandoh, post: 906165, member: 55695"] You should keep a steady acceleration through the ramp and then let off the throttle as soon as your rear tire leaves the ramp. so ive been told .unless its a kicker style....obviously. 2 strokes dont have near the engine braking as 4 strokes . i dont know if i even keep on throttle till the rear tire leaves, i believe i let off somewhere between when the front tire is on the lip and when rear is on lip its subconcious but you stated this track is sandy and i know i keep an even throttle longer when riding sand due to the extra drag. i hit every jump as if i want to land level then english it in the air to match the attitude of the down ramp if hit perfect or nose high for unexpecteds. however i love the feeling of leaning over the plate and yanking my legs up to get the downramp smooooooooooth [/QUOTE]
